You should already have an BlueSombrero account if you registered as a volunteer before. If not, you can create one right before signing up to the course by clicking on REGISTER NOW in the upper right corner.IMPORTANT:

Be sure to use a VALID EMAIL address with your Blue Sombrero account (ideally the same email you used for your parent account on WebYouthSoccer, which is not linked to the national Blue Sombrero site)

YOUTH VOLUNTEERS must sign up under their own Youth account, NOT a parent’s account. A parent can create a Youth account for them and use his/her own email address to be sure to receive messages from the instructor!

Likewise A SPOUSE SHOULD NOT use or create his/her account to sign up his/her better half!

Step 2: Select Login – Use the Blue Sombrero login

Please add the course(s) you selected to your personal calendar and be sure to attend. You should receive an email from the course instructor a few days before the class reminding you of the date and location. Instructors and other volunteers put a lot of hours into organizing courses each season. Make sure you communicate any change on your status!
